The way Chris described Astrology as a "form of bigotry exclusive to women" is the REALEST shit I've ever heard anybody say.

[@Nemoknowsnothing]

Whenever a girl asks what is my sign I always lie about my birth date and then look them putting me in a little box. I don't even use it as a gotcha.

[@peepeestorm3187]

@@Nemoknowsnothing I do the same shit bro. It gets REAL funny watching them describe someone else entirely based on bullshit.

[@protodroidstuff]

After an extent yeah But most people i've met who are into it do not act like that. I think its more of an issue with normies and using whatever as an excuse to just be mean to some people

[@greenoftreeblackofblue6625]

I love that video of the person fake being excited and telling them the sign was bullshit and using it as a gotcha.

46:28 may be one of the best things Sweeney has ever said

[@needlesslycritical6199]

[@preachingamigo]

Japan's view towards WW2 is actually very interesting. America was content to let the Japanese government who started the war remain in control, and Japan has actively suppressed information about the war. War criminals are heralded as heroes, politicians who hint at Japan having done bad things are forced to apologise or lose their jobs, and there's an extensive lack of education on the topic. Not only do some people not believe that Pearl Harbour happened, there are people who don't even know that Japan was at war with the USA. Japanese Imperialism is insanely popular compared to what you'd expect, and it's a very serious issue.

[@greenoftreeblackofblue6625]

If I was American I would be mad. I am American but it's not 1946 and am not a war veteran of ww2.

[@idk-imacat]

Chris pushing back and arguing why it's ok to be offensive and say whatever you want in comedy was really nice and I appreciate it

[@trinidaddy]

Lmao the fact that it was him just putting down people with no hint of comedy just shows why you people cry about free speech. But it's not even that deep in your brain. You didn't even watch the special, you have no idea what he says or the context of it, or even the fact that it's just him spouting his opinions with no comedic tone, you just read a headline that said "liberals cancel comedian for trans jokes" and that was enough for you to turn it into propaganda for the agenda that pertains to your worldview.

10:00 Sweeney singing "Sweet Child of Mine" to the melody of "Sweet Caroline"

[@rougenarwhal8378]

this episode of snark tank features: chris saying the hard R for no reason, derrick finally admits to loving femboys, and sweeney continues to say out of pocket just barely enough times for it to be unusual and bring attention to itself

[@joekinnear4671]

just so you understand how large a collective 1 million spongebobs is, imagine a 156.25 yard-tall cube of sponge plopped down in front of superman. They would quite literally take up the area of a football arena. If they swarmed him, they might trap him forever.

There's an episode of SpongeBob where he starts tugging on a thread and it begins to unravel reality itself, ending with him unraveling the entire galaxy.

[@ironpro7217]

does anyone remember in which episodes chris talks about jumping off a bridge so his friends let him sit at the lunch table, sweeny says "hi I'm sweeny look at me" or derrick talks about how he loves hitler (as a villain in games)?

[@xblowsmokex]

I dont remember the episode, but I remember losing my shit at "im sweeney look at me" please let us know if you find out

[@Boredman567]

Ancient Apocalypse has been critiqued all over the place, but Miniminuteman did a good series addressing a lot of the distortions and outright lies that Hancock spouted in his show. Hancock's favorite tactic is to strawman other archaeologists to make them sound closed-minded.

[@thatguy779]

I think the crucial difference between the MJ jokes and the TERF stuff is that ultimately; Dave's jokes on the former were never on the side of "I think it's good what he probably did to them kids actually unironically", in contrast to him just siding with the vocally anti-trans crowd and thats just it lmao

[@bicuriousdirtbikeboi2594]

The thing about the word Gypsy is that it's used to describe so many different people and some people consider it a slur and some don't. Like I've heard Romani people be called Gypsy and I've heard nomadic Irish Americans being called Gypsies. It's very weird.

[@bigtee2000]

I REALLY enjoy this podcast, but good lord when you guys talk about shit you don't know, it blows my mind while I also appreciate your honesty.

[@Alexander59059]

Hearing Chris take Hancock seriously caused me physical harm

Before I hit play, I just want to say: Superman couldn't beat ONE Spongebob, let alone a fucking MILLION.

[@Maxisamo1]

If you encorporate ALL of Superman's abilities like you're doing for SpongeBob, he would win because he can literally shoot miniature versions of himself, and can just freeze all of the SpongeBob with his breath

[@baseballlover312]

I'd caution you guys to not jump to conclusions about pre-historical anthropology if you don't have a background in it. With more "hard sciences," you would quickly discredit any one guy claiming stuff that goes against scientific consensus as a conspiracy theorist, because the terminology in those fields goes above our heads. But with stuff like anthropology, people can explain it in ways that make their opinion on it seem like common sense. There's way more that goes into it than that. I haven't seen the show in question, so I'm not gonna speculate, but I would not jump to conclusions that there's some giant conspiracy to prevent archaeological discovery that everyone except this guy is in on.

[@WookieWarriorz]

Yea a bunch of anthropologists have made videos debunking all the ancient aliens nonsense and the dude that made the show is a know scam bullshit artist in the scientific community.

[@Alexander59059]

yeah... taking Hancock seriously is a complete joke

[@user-lv8hn8nd5o]

The Chappelle stuff is so sad because it shows he's been successful for so long that he forgot what it's like to be from a marginalized group fighting for their rights.

[@trinidaddy]

It's what disappoints me as a poc. Love the irony of going back through these comments and seeing all of the conservative bigoted white Republicans that are agreeing with Chris and chapelle. Only the plights of his group are worthy of respect I suppose, kinda lost a lot of respect for what he stood for at that point, still a funny comedian though.

[@demo0831]

Okay And another thing Sweeny is right. The archeologists who "Discovered" the pyramids often believed it too not be made by africans. Infact, The Nazi party believed that it was the "Anchient Aryians" who built the great monoliths of egypt. You have to understand that archeology is, like everything else, marked by the time it was in. The people who discovered these locations often found pundants lining the pockets of archeologists to aid in spreading a particular narrative. Often this was done by facist countries (Most famously Nazi germany) This is because of facist nations tendency to lean heavily on legacy to legitamize themselves. The people who claimed the anchients egyptians making the pyramids was myth, were people hellbent on selling there own. Also the "politics" of the now are basically just wanting evidence thats peer reviewed. Science is not going to just uproot its entire well established consensus for the sake of one peice of dubious evidence. Verification of the validity of said evidence, and the skepticism of its value are neccassary parts of the practice. P.S Im not saying anyone who believes in ancient alliens is racist, (Though the relation between the altright and lunatic conspiracy are shocking close.) Im just saying that objectively speaking, a lot of people "questioning" the field of history are, to say the least flooish, and antithetical to rational and empircal truth and the death of intellectualism.

[@cablefeed3738]

Do you really believe that the nazis actually believed that ancient Aryians built them or that it was just propaganda so that they could continue conquering lands, building morale, and project power?

36:25 and I think I know what map you're talking about, I've seen a (student) archaeologist pretty convincingly argue that the continent depicted on that map is Australia. You give old cartographers too much credit. The mapped things reasonably well around the points of interest, basically where trade routes went. But everything else - no one really cared to spend shit ton of research resources to *accurately* map those fringe frontier parts

[@Gingerm0nster]

1:46:04 I tried to find stuff on this but the only thing I found was how [Dave Chapelle’s trans friend who died] Daphne’s sisters backed up everything Dave said in “The Closer”. So I’m not sure where SBG is getting his info. I agree Dave fucked up a lot (the whole “team TERF” this is so stupid and at odds with what he says his position is. I think he straight up did not understand what TERFS actually do) but that doesn’t mean we should throw the baby out with the bath water. I think it’s especially important to take cue from trans women who have actually seen his special (as opposed to people who refuse to watch it and just say “it’s bad”.) and see how they feel about it. From what I’ve read, it’s a mixed bag. Some trans women do find it offensive, others see it as misguided but well meaning, and many don’t care either way.

34:12 I ain't no historian, so I can only *assume* ... But I assume the flood story could come from how glaciers melting gradually drowned a huge portion of dry land, particularly in mediteranean and baltic seas (but ofc all over the world too). And I guess people in their oral tradition told new generations how they used to live where it's ocean now

[@WookieWarriorz]

The sea rose by about 60 meters within a few hundred years after the end of the last cold period about 25 thousand years ago, so yea there would have been significant amounts of land previously inhabited that's now under water. Watch some videos debunking the ancient Apocalypse nonsense to find out more.

You guys may be misunderstanding, Dave Chappelle didn't apologize because he believes what he said, as do a lot people. Why is it SO baffling that other people don't share your same view on a topic? Like it's crazy. It just seems so impossible to you. Believing people are what they are isn't bigotry, it's like the liberal MO to call every single stance a conservative could take as bigotry.

[@WookieWarriorz]

Google the word bigotry, study it very closely because you're slow, then apply it to most shit conservatives say...

[@touchofcomics1841]

Honestly he just gives me that he never thought too deeply about it cuz why would he? And made jokes about it like anything else and now has a dislike of the community but really doesn't care about the topic. Like if the community didn't make a big deal about it, he wouldn't have been catered by the terfs, he wouldn't have been distanced from reasonable transpeople and would have probably took the L cuz he clearly transphobic due to ignorance.

[@touchofcomics1841]

They say that and I say that cuz he is super liberal. Like classic old head liberal from the block

[@trinidaddy]

So saying trans people aren't people to millions is just the conservative viewpoint and shouldn't be pushed back against? The world wouldn't mind if you had a baptism involving acid.

There are actually such a large and radical amount of people in Japan who specifically think Pearl Harbour was a conspiracy made up by the west to justify the nukes that a speech given by the Prime Minister of Japan simply acknowledging the existence of Pearl Harbour received so much backlash that he was forced to publicly withdraw his statements and apologise. It's much worse than you think. Many Japanese people to this day, including many within the government, still dispute and outright deny Pearl Harbour as well as The Rape of Nanking and many other actions specifically taken during WWII. There are so many people in these groups that they can literally pressure politicians into retracting statements and apologizing. Something that has happened on several occasions, most notably with the Prime Minister himself.

I see theories that just don't go over the edge of crazy enough. To be like the "aliens built the planes that crash into the twin tower theory".
